Hi Colleen, Your sketches make that page seem 3-dimensional. This one is my favorite so far because of the Cute Chloe and your technical treatment of all the little wrinkles …and her eyes. Nice work!–Rachel

wow. Thats amazing! Thanks for suscribe to my blog! if you have something that you feel i write too little about or anything that can change, write to me and let me know! Thank you and again really nice job on thins painting!

Hi Colleen,
We have a female bulldog named Bessie. She’s about eight years old. We rescued her. I think she looks a lot like Chloe. We had a male bulldog named Bagel who lived to be 15 years old. Bulldogs are something else. Bessie doesn’t like to get much exercise. It’s often an effort to get her to walk around the block, but she’s very loving. She feels like the reincarnated spirit of Bagel. We waited five years after Bagel died before adopting Bessie. She was about five or six when we adopted her. Anything’s possible, I suppose.

Thank you very much for your compliment. I would love my work in a book one day. Also, thank you for shining the light on Shaun Tan’s work. I book marked his website so I can reference it later. I can draw realistically, but I can’t doodle like he can. Its a real talent. See you around wordpress 🙂

Hey thanks, I have been drawing for about 13 years.. give or take. I did stop drawing for about 9 of those years in between. I wish i hadn’t, but we can’t go backwards ( as my mother always tells me 🙂 ) so I just work with what I have now and keep going. I have already started my next project, hopefully it will be up soon 🙂
